Melasma

Noor Dermatology is committed to helping patients achieve healthy and radiant skin. One of the most common skin concerns we see at our clinic is melasma, a condition that causes dark, discolored patches on the skin. Melasma is a frustrating condition that can be difficult to treat, but with the right approach, it is possible to achieve significant improvement in the appearance of the skin.

Melasma is a condition that typically affects women more than men, and it is most commonly seen in individuals with darker skin tones. The exact cause of melasma is not known, but it is believed to be related to hormonal changes, such as those that occur during pregnancy or with the use of certain medications. Sun exposure is also a significant risk factor for developing melasma, which is why it is important to protect the skin from the sun’s harmful rays.

At Noor Dermatology, we offer a range of treatment options for melasma, including topical creams, chemical peels, and light-based therapies. 

In addition to professional treatments, there are also steps you can take at home to help manage melasma. These include wearing a broad-spectrum sunscreen with an SPF of 30 or higher every day, wearing protective clothing such as hats and long-sleeved shirts when outdoors, and avoiding excessive sun exposure. It is also important to avoid using harsh skincare products or treatments that can irritate the skin and make melasma worse.

If you are struggling with melasma, don’t despair – there are effective treatments available that can help you achieve healthy, glowing skin. Contact Noor Dermatology today to schedule a consultation and learn more about your treatment options.
